ultrasound pictures

nursery theme

Ok so I need some help since Buddy doesnt see a need to decorate the baby's room, therefor not giving me his input or creative thoughts. Argh.

The color of the room is a brighter green. Carpet isnt white..but its not really tan-maybe a real light tan??

I've looked on babies r us' website but nothing really stood out for me....

Help! :)

He was weighing in at 9oz.

How about you wait until after tomorrow when I will have a biggggg update ;)

18 week belly

belly

So I dont have any good pictures of my hair in my belly pictures and I looked absolutely horrible in the pictures anyways soooo I just cropped me out :) Sorry. But heres my belly today (17 weeks and 3 days). I swear I feel like it looks bigger in person but maybe not.

17 weeks

((Almost)) 17 weeks, today is my last day in the 16th week. So what has been happening? My belly is definately showing, and my innie belly button is now flat with my stomach/skin. I had a few episodes the other night where I think I might have felt the baby move, but I really am not sure AT ALL. Besides April 28th (we find out the sex, less than 2 weeks!!), I'm so looking forward to me being able to surely feel the baby and for buddy to be able to feel him/her as well. When I had an episode the other night he stopped and put his hand on my stomach like he would be able to feel it or something, lol. Hes excited to feel the baby :) I havent thrown up in a few weeks, yay. I have been having days where I am nausous still though, but NOTHING compared to the nausea I was having in the 1st trimester. I should post a picture of my belly. :) ha

Work..I'm still at bay park working as an aid, no RN positions are open at this point. Anne grady I am officially on the books as an RN and I work on friday-not to mention I havent been there since february so Im super excited to see my kiddos, and be in nurse role. It will be somewhat of a change because I'll have to get into nurse mode and out of aid mode ha. Im excited for the 10 dollar pay increase as well :) yay.

Buddy and I's 1 year wedding anniversary is coming up, may 17th. As of right now we have booked a room at bellamaire suites in perryburg and added the anniversary package to it. So we get an early check in at 2pm, coupon/gift certificate to biaggis, late checkout at 1pm, pre-lit candles when we wish to have them (prolly when we get back from dinner), a jacuzzi in our room and also a couples one hour massage. Im super stoked :) At biaggis I think im going to break down and have a *gasp* glass of champagne. No hate mail, please. Rach-you found themed present ideas for wedding anniversary-whats the 1 year?

I'm getting my hair cut tonight, and *another gasp* highlited. Im being a rebel lately, but thats the only things Im doing so far that you arent 'supposed' to do during pregnancy. My midwife actually never mentioned the hair color/highlite thing but I still know its not recommened. Oops. Im sure the baby will be ok :) Sorry if I offend you guys lol
